Gettysburg Address
Delivered at Gettysburg, Pa.
Nov. 19th 1863.
“Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived
in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. “Now we are engaged
in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can
long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of
that field as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is
altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. “But in a larger sense we cannot dedicate, we
cannot consecrate, we cannot hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled
here have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor
long remember, what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living,
rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so
nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us,that
from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full
measure of devotion, that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain, that
this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the
people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:4n3ffbsk7ja3srwnub6qfsla/bafkreibc2cchb2nky6spgm4ffek42pblnhibnec7cvb364ew3wdq5324wu)

November 19, 1863: Abraham Lincoln delivered the Gettysburg Address. Just 272 words, yet it remains one of the most important speeches in American history. Its message endures: a call to honor sacrifice and uphold the promise of freedom and democracy for all. #History #Lincoln #GettysburgAddress

OTD in 1863, 162 years ago, Honest Abe delivered the #GettysburgAddress. The American experiment survived a great civil war, and it seemed there could be no greater test, until now.

"And that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth."
162 years ago OTD, Abraham Lincoln finished his remarks at Gettysburg with these words. Somewhere, Mr Lincoln is sadly shaking his head at what is happening in the United States.

The world will little note, nor long remember, what we say here, but can never forget what they did here. It is for us, the living, rather to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they have, thus far, so nobly carried on.
